imagine moving your family to a house next to a waterfall coming out of a sewer pipe

but like, they could just fork those clients and add those features

metal pipe sound effect

i hope the basil plant never reads this, poor thing having all its work taken from it

yeah idk what the fuck that person is on about, you can grow whole-grain toast but white toast is cloned.

It is quite easy though: Just plant some of the crust and it'll ro(o)t within a week.

you can't really say that and not mention the fact that e-ink is reflective and almost literally looks like paper, which is the main appeal for a ton of people. It's vastly more comfortable to look at for long periods, and remains easily readable in direct sunlight (just like paper).

not needing continous refresh won't go away, i have no earthly clue why you'd assume that.

all this does is let it reach higher peak refresh rate by being smart about how it refreshes, if anything it should make the panels MORE efficient since they don't need to refresh everything at once.

i mean.. okay then, step up and stretch your arms out while i get the hammer and nails..

i really do think this is something that should be brought up more, whatever ones opinion on AI there at least needs to be some things that don't immediately jump on the bandwagon, as a fallback and control group.

like, fuck, imagine if our earliest ancestors had found some funny looking red mushrooms with white spots and all had a taste at once, our species would have gone extinct!

someone has to teach them when it's appropriate to use them, otherwise they won't have any distinction between "fuck" and "shitcunt up the mingetwat" and that's not great.

missing the final stage: belly-up, footsies in the air, making air biscuits.

eh, i don't think things'll have time to regress that far before the pendulum swings back, plus it's only getting easier to set up your own connections over long distances.

What i can see disappearing are things like youtube and global multiplayer gaming, because that's just so incredibly data-heavy. But lightweight stuff like sane websites, forums, chats.. that's quite feasible on something like a globally interconnected mesh. At worst you'll have to wait a bit for things to load, but like.. we would probably benefit from that..
